World Health Organization Sets Centre in Jamnagar, Boosting Indian Ayurveda

The World Health Organization’s decision to locate its Global Traditional Medicine Centre in Jamnagar marks a significant endorsement of India’s Ayurvedic expertise. The facility will serve as a hub for clinical trials, standardisation, and intellectual property protection of indigenous formulations. Trivedi explained that this move will not only legitimise traditional practices on an international stage but also attract foreign investment in research and development. He called for coordinated efforts among ministries, universities, and private firms to leverage the centre’s capabilities and create market‑ready products that meet global safety and efficacy standards.
